The man page and the "fail" example are missing an underscore in the
nf_mark ematch.
eg.
tc filter add dev eth0 parent ffff: basic match 'meta(nfmark gt 24)'
classid 2:4
meta: unknown meta id
... >>meta(nfmark gt 24)<< ...
... meta(>>nfmark<< gt 24)...
Usage: meta(OBJECT { eq | lt | gt } OBJECT)
where: OBJECT := { META_ID | VALUE }
META_ID := id [ shift SHIFT ] [ mask MASK ]
Example: meta(nfmark gt 24)
meta(indev shift 1 eq "ppp")
meta(tcindex mask 0xf0 eq 0xf0)
For a list of meta identifiers, use meta(list).
Illegal "ematch"
meta(list) does correctly show nf_mark and the above test works with
nf_mark.

First, the default value for 1-k is documented as being 0, but is
currently being set to 1. (100%). This causes all packets to be dropped
in the good state if 1-k is not explicitly specified. Fix this by setting
the default to 0.
Second, the 1-h option is parsed correctly, however, the kernel is
expecting "h", not 1-h. Fix this by inverting the "1-h" percentage before
sending to and after receiving from the kernel. This does change the
behavior, but makes it consistent with the netem documentation and the
literature on the Gilbert-Elliot model, which refer to "1-h" and "1-k,"
not "h" or "k" directly.
Last, fix a minor formatting issue for the options reporting.

BUG: tc filter show ... produce a segmentation fault if more than one
filter rule with action -j MARK exists.
Reason: In print_ipt(...) xtables will be initialzed with a
pointer to the static struct tcipt_globals at xtables_init_all().
Later on the fields .opts and .options_offset of tcipt_globals are
modified. The call of xtables_free_opts(1) at the end of print(...)
does not restore the original values of tcipt_globals for the
modified fields. It only frees some allocated memory and sets
.opts to NULL. This leads to a segmentation fault when print_ipt()
is called for the next filter rule with action -j MARK.
Fix: Cloneing tcipt_globals on the stack as tmp_tcipt_globals and
use it instead of tcipt_globals, so tcipt_globals will be not
modified.

The display of the entire netem loss state is shown as if it
were gemodel state, as the loss state information is assigned to the

pointer.
Additionally, attempting to set netem loss state will result in
random values in the p14 state probability because the option value
passed to the kernel by tc netem is not parsed or initialized. Fix this
by supplying a default value of 0 for p14 and parsing the p14 value if

Proportional Integral controller Enhanced (PIE) is a scheduler to address the
bufferbloat problem.
We present here a lightweight design, PIE(Proportional Integral controller
Enhanced) that can effectively control the average queueing latency to a target
value. Simulation results, theoretical analysis and Linux testbed results have
shown that PIE can ensure low latency and achieve high link utilization under
various congestion situations. The design does not require per-packet
timestamp, so it incurs very small overhead and is simple enough to implement
in both hardware and software. "

Conference on High Performance Switching and Routing 2013. A copy of the paper

Kernel linklayer handling got fixed in kernel v3.11 by

The linklayer fix introduced a struct change, that allow the linklayer
attribute to be transferred between tc and kernel. This patch make use

In trying to build on a RHEL6.3 I ran into several build issues that are
addressed in this patch.
The first is that xtables_merge_options only has 3 parameters. It appears
this is how this code was originally. As such for the case where the version
is less than 6 I am assuming it would be correct to maintain the original
setup that only had 3 parameters being passed instead of 4.
I also ran into an issue with the define for __ALIGN_KERNEL not being present.
I believe this may be due to the fact that __ALIGN_KERNEL was moved into a
separate header from ALIGN after the UAPI changes. In order to just cover all
of the bases I have moved the main definition for the macros into
__ALIGN_KERNEL_MASK and __ALIGN_KERNEL and if ALIGN is also needed then it is
just a direct redefine to __ALIGN_KERNEL.

Clearer error messages for fifo and tbf qdiscs:
- Say who is complaining
- Don't just say a parameter is bad, show the offending parameter
- Be clearer about duplicate parameters vs illegal pairs of parameters
- Try to give multiple error messages rather than let the user discover the errors one by one
- When there are parameter aliases, try to use the variant that was used, or at least mention them all
Note that in the old version an empty parameter list to tbf would just cause an explain() message
without a specific error message. By simply removing the relevant error check, the code now
handles this error more gracefully by printing an error message for all mandatory parameters.
It still prints the explain() message.

We need to change the man page and comment for compatible with the

Because we use the high 16 bits of tcm_info to pass prio value to
kernel, thus it's range would be [0, 0xffff], without validation
in tc when user pass a lager(>65535) priority, the actual priority

Fair Queue Codel packet scheduler
Principles :
- Packets are classified (internal classifier or external) on flows.
- This is a Stochastic model (as we use a hash, several flows might
be hashed on same slot)
- Each flow has a CoDel managed queue.
- Flows are linked onto two (Round Robin) lists,
so that new flows have priority on old ones.
- For a given flow, packets are not reordered (CoDel uses a FIFO)
- head drops only.
- ECN capability is on by default.
- Very low memory footprint (64 bytes per flow)

An implementation of CoDel AQM, from Kathleen Nichols and Van Jacobson.
http://queue.acm.org/detail.cfm?id=2209336
This AQM main input is no longer queue size in bytes or packets, but the
delay packets stay in (FIFO) queue.
As we don't have infinite memory, we still can drop packets in enqueue()
in case of massive load, but mean of CoDel is to drop packets in
dequeue(), using a control law based on two simple parameters :
target : target sojourn time (default 5ms)
interval : width of moving time window (default 100ms)
Selected packets are dropped, unless ECN is enabled and packets can get
ECN mark instead.
Usage: tc qdisc ... codel [ limit PACKETS ] [ target TIME ]
[ interval TIME ] [ ecn ]
qdisc codel 10: parent 1:1 limit 2000p target 3.0ms interval 60.0ms ecn
Sent 13347099587 bytes 8815805 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 0)
rate 202365Kbit 16708pps backlog 113550b 75p requeues 0
count 116 lastcount 98 ldelay 4.3ms dropping drop_next 816us
maxpacket 1514 ecn_mark 84399 drop_overlimit 0
CoDel must be seen as a base module, and should be used keeping in mind
there is still a FIFO queue. So a typical setup will probably need a
hierarchy of several qdiscs and packet classifiers to be able to meet
whatever constraints a user might have.
One possible example would be to use fq_codel, which combines Fair
Queueing and CoDel, in replacement of sfq / sfq_red.

Adds an optional Random Early Detection on each SFQ flow queue.
Traditional SFQ limits count of packets, while RED permits to also
control number of bytes per flow, and adds ECN capability as well.
1) We dont handle the idle time management in this RED implementation,
since each 'new flow' begins with a null qavg. We really want to address
backlogged flows.
2) if headdrop is selected, we try to ecn mark first packet instead of
currently enqueued packet. This gives faster feedback for tcp flows
compared to traditional RED [ marking the last packet in queue ]

In this test, with 64 netperf TCP_STREAM sessions, 50% using ECN enabled
flows, we can see number of packets CE marked is smaller than number of
drops (for non ECN flows)
If same test is run, without RED, we can check backlog is much bigger.

Enable Adaptative RED algo, using :
tc qdisc ... red limit BYTES ... adaptative ...
Support of high precision probability/max_p setting and reporting, with
support of old kernels.
With a new kernel, "Plog ..." is replaced in tc output by "probability
value" :
qdisc red 10: dev eth3 parent 1:1 limit 360Kb min 30Kb max 90Kb ecn ewma
5 probability 0.09 Scell_log 15
This patch add rate shaping as well as cell support. The link-rate can be
specified via rate options. Three optional arguments control the cell
knobs: packet-overhead, cell-size, cell-overhead. To ratelimit eth0 root
queue to 5kbit/s, with a 20 byte packet overhead, 100 byte cell size and
a 5 byte per cell overhead:
tc qdisc add dev eth0 root netem rate 5kbit 20 100 5

Both rtnl_talk and rtnl_dump had a callback for handling portions
of netlink message that do not match the correct pid or seq.
But this callback was never used by any part of iproute2 so remove
it.
Add harddrop support (kernel support added a long time ago), and various
cleanups.
min BYTES, max BYTES are now optional and follow Sally Floyd's
recommendations.
By the way, our default 2% probability is a bit low, Sally recommends 10%.
Not a big deal if upcoming adaptative algo is deployed.
